    Skilled assembly on site, crate to first burn.

  • Electrical coordination

    Electrical is coordinated through licensed electricians.

  • Protection

    Climate-appropriate treatment for the seasons the room will live through.

About this buildout.

Straight walls and a tall ceiling open the room up, and the front carries bronze tempered glass across the door and window. A porch runs along the front of the cabin. The square footprint gives the benches real depth on both tiers.

Upper and lower benches let each person pick their heat, and the glass front keeps the yard in view through the whole session. The room stays what a sauna should be: warm wood, quiet, and nothing extra.

The Model GL6B option finishes the cabin in a black exterior buildout. We match the heater to the room with you during the consultation.

When you add a GL6 through us, we handle delivery, assembly, and the site work around it, including electrical coordination. We walk the site access with you first and confirm every detail before anything ships.

  • “Worthy of 10 stars! Went above and beyond to ensure we had full understanding in everything: the sauna we purchased, the ordering, delivery, and setup. Absolutely love our sauna and worth every penny. David was incredibly knowledgeable and went out of his way to over-deliver. Highly recommend working with David!”
